Question

6 less than the product of 5 and a number A. 5-6n B. 6+5n C. 5(n - 6) D. 5n-6

Answer 1

Answer:

D.

Step-by-step explanation:

5 times a number is 5n. We need to subtract 6 from that, so we have 5n-6 for any value n.

Answer 2

Answer:

D. 5n - 6

Step-by-step explanation:

6 less means -6

The product of 5 and a number means 5 x n which is the same as 5n

And it wants us to subtract 6 from 5n

so we would write it as...

5n - 6
